3 1. Security One of the most important goals in the CitiDirect development is to secure your information while connecting to the Bank. System uses the most recent security methods available, ensuring confidentiality in the process of creating, sending and browsing transactions. CitiDirect uses a following four-level security system: 1. User identification and verification. 2. Authorization levels. 3. Data encryption. 4. Monitoring and alarming. 1. User identification and verification Access to CitiDirect system is limited to strictly defined Users, who log in to the system using SafeWord card (so-called token). SafeWord card generates unique and one-use passwords, which eliminates the risk of getting access to the system by stealing or breaking the password. Additionally SafeWord card itself is protected by 4-digit PIN known only to the card holder. 2. Authorization levels User permissions are controlled by their access profiles, which define a specific authorization level to CitiDirect options. Profiles are created by system administrators or by Citi Handlowy on your written request and determine: access to specified accounts, types of transactions, the amount of a single payment, schemes and authorization limits, etc. 3. Data encryption Connection between the User and the Bank is encrypted in order to prevent intruders from getting access to data. The encryption protocol (TLS) ensures privacy and reliability. 128-bit encryption required from financial institution is enabled by a special digital certificate VeriSign. Thank to this CitiDirect system establishes a secure connection, granting access to encrypted data only to authorized Users. TLS also protects cohesion of the data sent in secure, encrypted connection thank to the Message Authentication Code (MAC) MAC detects if data was not changed in the process of transmission. 4. Monitoring and alarming Discrete and non-absorbing control and alarm mechanisms are a very important element in CitiDirect security structure. It allows quick detection and identification of unauthorized attempts to access the system. All events are reported to the 24-hour monitoring system which allows immediate investigation and problem solution. 3

4 Irrespectively of implemented security measures User must be aware of dangers that may occur in the Internet and follow the rules listed below: 1. Before logging, make sure that you are on the proper safe program website. In the browser window, on the status bar, down on the right side there must be a closed lock indicating that the connection is encrypted. The website address should begin with https. 2. CitiDirect website uses certificate protection. Never ignore browser warnings about errors, particularly certificate errors. If you state a certificate error, report this fact to the Bank immediately. 3. SafeWord card one-time password generator makes CitiDirect resistant to attempts to steal password. Make sure to always carry it with you, memorize its PIN number and do not record it anywhere. All actions performed in CitiDirect are being registered. Each operation performed with your card will be treated as yours. If you decide to share PIN number and card with a third person, you do this on your own responsibility. If you lose your card, report to the Bank immediately. 4. System automatically blocks the access after 15 minutes of inactivity and forces to log back in. However, you should never leave the program opened longer than necessary. Log out right after finishing your work or when you are going away from the computer even for a short while. Do not create an opportunity for unauthorized persons to use even for a few seconds the session you opened. 5. Care about security of your computer. Install system updates as soon as they become available. Use antivirus programs and software that protects your computer from external attacks. Do not install programs of unknown origin. Any damages caused by not following the above rules are the sole responsibility of the USER. Not logging to CitiDirect for over a year will result in removing SafeWord card from the system permanently and its replacement will be necessary. 4
